Letting Go

       Ralph, the water turtle, was given to Aubrey by her PawPaw Elden.  PawPaw found him in a mud puddle at his house.  We kept Ralph in an aquarium with a little water to swim in and some rocks and a fake log to climb on.  He lived on turtle food bought at a pet store and he did quite well. After a year and a half of caring for Ralph,we decided it was time to set him free.

Saying Good-bye

Almost there....

Ahh, sweet freedom!

                     Papa Dale's pond, where Ralph now resides.
